A haircut and the OK hand symbol are raciest?

A haircut and the OK hand symbol are raciest? I respect what the ADL is attempting to accomplish and bringing to light to actual hate symbols. A lot of them are disgusting, violent and vial memes, threatening harm or death on people because of the way they look or their beliefs. All of that should be unanimously denounced entirely! Can we find common ground that a musician giving the OK symbol during a sound check and every person wearing a Bowlcut is not automatically perceived as raciest?

Direct Quotes

The “OK” hand symbol – Begun as a hoax by members of the website 4chan, the OK symbol became a popular trolling tactic. By 2019, the symbol was being used in some circles as a sincere expression of white supremacy. Australian white supremacist Brenton Tarrant  ashed the symbol during his March 2019 courtroom appearance soon after his arrest for allegedly murdering 50 people in mosques in Christchurch.

The “Bowlcut” is an image of a bowl-shaped haircut resembling the one worn by white supremacist mass killer Dylann Roof. Those who use the bowlcut image or other “bowl” references admire Roof and call for others to emulate his 2015 mass shooting attack at Emanuel AME Church in Charleston, South Carolina.

  https://www.newsweek.com/exclusive-putin-treated-cancer-april-us-intelligence-report-says-1710357 This article kept me on the edge of my seat the entire time. There are a lot of “seems”, “sensing”, “rumor” and suggesting so it’s tough to put a lot of faith in the idea that Putin is nearing the end of his leadership. The statement quoted in this article by a Ukraine Intelligence official is the most reliable source. Even though this idea is interesting and may bring some comfort to Ukraine. The world and the Biden administration cannot plan on a soon “expiration date” of Putin. We should have learned that lesson already. Also who is to say that the next Russian “President” won’t have similar ambitions?  Compared to the weak, frail and cognitively failing Biden, everything I’ve seen makes Putin look like a rock star. I disagree with the authors about the long tables in Russia. This article states that the long table “became a baseline against which to measure the Russian presi...

Democrats stuck their heads in the sand a pretended this didn’t happen, now a full on pardon for Hunter? Maybe some shady stuff did happen overseas that the Biden’s made millions off of. Direct Quotes: Devon Archer told the House Oversight Committee on Monday that his former business partner, Hunter Biden, was selling the “illusion” of access to his father, according to a source familiar with the closed-door interview After the interview concluded, a second source told CNN that Archer did affirm to the committee that Hunter Biden was selling the “illusion” of access to his father, but later clarified that the president’s son was actually selling the illusion of access to Washington, DC, and knowledge of how it worked.
